Blizzard made significant changes to summoning material requirements for endgame bosses in Vessel of Hatred!



Here&#8217;s a breakdown of all the changes:



<ul>
<li>Echo of Varshan: Summoning now requires 4 <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Malignant_4.webp" alt="Malignant Heart">Malignant Heart</a>s, down from 2 (World Tier 3) and 5 (World Tier 4).</li>



<li>Grigoire: Previously needing 2 (WT3) / 5 <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Quest_Keys_7.webp" alt="Living Steel">Living Steel</a> (WT4), this boss now only demands 12 <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Quest_Keys_7.webp" alt="Living Steel">Living Steel</a> across all difficulties.</li>



<li>Beast in the Ice: The requirement for <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Quest_MiscTrinkets_46.webp" alt="Distilled Fear">Distilled Fear</a> has increased slightly from 9 to 12.</li>



<li>Lord Zir: The new summoning cost is 12<a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Quest_MiscTrinkets_6.webp" alt="Exquisite Blood">Exquisite Blood</a>, up from 9.</li>
</ul>

Summoning Material Reduction for Endgame Bosses in Vessel of Hatred

Discover the exciting new changes to gems in the Vessel of Hatred update. Gems can now be swapped without visiting the <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/guides/jeweler-guide/">Jeweler</a>, socketing is simplified, and a powerful new Grand tier has been introduced!



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Freely Swap Gems and Runes</h2>



One of the most important quality-of-life updates is the ability to freely swap Gems and <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/guides/runewords-guide/">Runes</a> without visiting the Jeweler. This will allow you to quickly change your gear without the hassle of traveling to town. Plus, unsocketing no longer costs gold!



How it works:



<ul>
<li>If you socket a Gem into an item with 2 slots and both are full, the bottom Gem will be automatically removed, with the new Gem placed on top.</li>



<li>Trying to socket a Gem into an item containing Runes will remove the Runes, and vice versa, inserting Runes into an item with Gems will remove the Gems.</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A New &#8220;Grand&#8221; Tier of Gems</h2>



A new Gem tier called &#8220;Grand&#8221; is being introduced, providing a 50% power boost over the previous &#8220;Royal&#8221; tier. Crafting these gems requires a hefty 100,000 Gem Fragments, 30 <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Materials_15.webp" alt="Forgotten Soul">Forgotten Soul</a>s, and 10,000,000 gold.



Some Gem effects have been reworked:



<ul>
<li>Ruby armor effect changed from % Max Life to + Strength.</li>



<li>Amethyst armor effect changed from +Strength to +% Barrier Generation.</li>



<li>Diamond armor effect changed from +% Barrier Generation to + All Stats.</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Gem Fragments Drop Rate Buffed</h2>



Gem fragments will drop in higher quantities as you take on more challenging foes. This accelerates your ability to craft higher-tier gems and makes you more powerful overall.



Here are the Gem stat updates, starting with Chipped, and ending with Grand:



<ul>
<li>Ruby, Emerald, Topaz, and Sapphire provide increased stat bonuses to Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, and Willpower, as follows: +25/50/75/100/150.</li>



<li>Amethyst now increases Barrier Generation by 2+2/4/6/8/12.</li>



<li>Diamond increases All Stats by +8/16/24/32/50.</li>



<li>Skull Gems boost healing received by +4/6/8/10/15.</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Easier Socketing and Leveling Access</h2>



You now gain access to the Jeweler at Level 1, making it easier to craft and manage gems early in the game. Chipped Gems can be crafted from Level 1, while Gem Fragments start dropping from level 5. Adding sockets to items now requires <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Materials_22.webp" alt="Scattered Prism">Scattered Prism</a>s, which are exclusive to Ancestral items and drop only in Torment difficulties.

Big Changes Coming to Gems in Vessel of Hatred Update!

Check out the <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/guides/masterworking-guide/">Masterworking</a> changes coming in the Vessel of Hatred expansion!



In addition to other game systems, Blizzard made the following changes to Masterworking in Vessel of Hatred:



<ul>
<li>The gold cost for Masterworking Ranks 5-12 has been reduced by 1/3.</li>



<li>Masterworking mats will now drop from more sources inside <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/guides/nightmare-dungeon-guide/">Nightmare Dungeons</a>, including Resplendent Chests, Normal Chests, Miscellaneous Interactive objectives (like ambient corpses), Breakables, The Butcher, Treasure Goblins, and Local Events.</li>



<li>Furthermore, Non-Ancestral Legendary items can now be Masterworked up to 8 times and have 2 Tempering Affixes. Material costs for Masterworking at lower ranks have been adjusted.</li>



<li>In <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/guides/infernal-hordes-guide/">Infernal Hordes</a>, both the Chest of Materials and Chest of Gold will consume all remaining Aether rewarding Gold or crafting materials (including Masterworking materials) the more Aether is spent on the chest.</li>
</ul>

Masterworking Updates in Vessel of Hatred Detailed

Blizzard decided to sunset a couple of <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/guides/runewords-guide/">Runewords</a> based on 2.0 PTR testing, ahead of Vessel of Hatred&#8217;s global launch, and make changes to existing ones. Let&#8217;s take a look!



Many runes were more too powerful and only gave multiplicative damage, some had no usage and din&#8217;t have good long-term potential.



<a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Runes_V2_96.webp" alt="Ur">Ur</a>, <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Runes_V2_26.webp" alt="Ono">Ono</a>, <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Runes_V2_24.webp" alt="Met">Met</a>, and <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Runes_V2_64.webp" alt="Kaa">Kaa</a> won&#8217;t make it live as these four runes didn&#8217;t meet the developers&#8217; expectations.



All runes should be competitive and have a potential home in a build, according to the devs.



Additionally, they&#8217;ve increased the offering on <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Runes_V2_14.webp" alt="Ohm">Ohm</a> (Warcry) to 600. Now it uses baseline <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" data-tooltip-name="War Cry" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DUI_Skills_Barbarian_87.webp" alt="War Cry">War Cry</a> (no longer gives <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/guides/berserk-status-effect/">Berserking</a>).



<a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Runes_V2_12.webp" alt="Yom">Yom</a> changes have been made to the Druid <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" data-tooltip-name="Petrify" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DUI_Skills_Druid_47.webp" alt="Petrify">Petrify</a> skill. Crit Damage bonuse moved to the Prime choice. Baseline petrify now grants 100 resource when used. This means the Yom runewords will Stun enemies ad give a large amount of resource.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Runes of Invocation Changes</h2>



In the latest livestream, Blizzard highlighted changes to Runes of Invocation.



<a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Runes_V2_28.webp" alt="Kry">Kry</a> (Spiritborn <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" data-tooltip-name="Vortex" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DUI_Skills_Spiritborn_64.webp" alt="Vortex">Vortex</a>) Offering has decreased from 500 to 300.



<a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Runes_V2_18.webp" alt="Ton">Ton</a> Rune version damage increased from 50% to 230%. Offering cost reduced to 20.



<a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Runes_V2_32.webp" alt="Ceh">Ceh</a> (Summon a Spiritwolf) now jusms to targets further and much more frequently. The attack damage and Leap damage increased to 30%.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Runes of Ritual Changes</h2>



Blizzard buffed certain Runes of Offering so they will proc more often.



<ul>
<li><a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Runes_V2_110.webp" alt="Feo">Feo</a> (Become Crowd-Controlled or Injured) cooldown reduced from 15 to 10 seconds.</li>

Last-Minute Runeword Changes and Removals Ahead of Vessel of Hatred Launch

With a whole giant expansion dropping, it&#8217;s easy to overlook some standard seasonal activity. But the Season of Hatred Rising is bringing some impressive stuff to bear, and among it is a pretty great Battle Pass! 



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Free Track</h2>



First off, a reminder that you do not need Vessel of Hatred to play Season 6. All the seasonal activities and almost all the rewards can be played for free with the base game. And so let&#8217;s take a look at what everyone will be getting without the paid Battle Pass. 



Players will be able to earn the Seething Vengeance title, as well as an armor set and 5 weapon cosmetics:



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/2024-10-06-01_27_52-d4-s6-battlespass-free-transmogs-b_960x540.webp-WEBP-Image-960-×-540-pixels-—.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image 44870"/></figure>



And there&#8217;s also a mount trophy to be had:



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/2024-10-06-01_28_15-d4-s6-battlespass-free-mount-trophy_960x540.webp-WEBP-Image-960-×-540-pixels-.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image 44871" style="width:505px;height:284px" width="505" height="284"/></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Premium Battle Pass</h2>



The Premium Battle Pass is included in the Deluxe edition of Vessel of Hatred and has a lot to offer. We&#8217;ll start with the very impressive armor set.



Soul Drinker Armor Set

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Accelerated Battle Pass</h2>

 That&#8217;s a whole lot coming on top of the expansion itself. We&#8217;re heading into a very big content period for Diablo 4, so let&#8217;s get ready! You can find out <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/guides/vessel-of-hatred-overview/">everything coming with the expansion here</a>, and the <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/news/launch-and-early-download-times-for-diablo-4-vessel-of-hatred-revealed-for-all-regions/">exact regional launch times here</a>, as well as the<a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/news/diablo-4-patch-2-0-1-and-2-0-2-notes/"> full patch notes here</a>.

Impressive Diablo 4 Season 6 Battle Pass Mounts, Trophies, Armor Sets and More Revealed

The wave-based <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/guides/infernal-hordes-guide/">Infernal Hordes</a> endgame activity was introduced with Season 5 and it was a big hit! Players flocked to it and it soon became the only place to get some really great rewards, completely overshadowing the Pit. Blizzard are making some drastic changes to the activity in <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/guides/vessel-of-hatred-overview/">Season 6</a> and Vessel of Hatred, so let&#8217;s take a look. 



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Infernal Compass Changes</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/for-the-love-of-god-make-these-stack-next-season-v0-b8g67smv82qd11-e1726890076548.png" alt="" style="width:423px;height:359px" width="423" height="359"/></figure>



Compasses can no longer be crafted and will only appear in Torment difficulties. You&#8217;ll need to be level 60 and clear various Pit level requirements to access the 4 Torment difficulties, starting with 20 for T1. The new Compasses are rare drops from the 4 hardest difficulties in the game. They are meant to be more rewarding but not quite so frequent, since they&#8217;re no longer the core activity of the season. So, no more inventory spam! 



The difficulty of the activity is now purely based on the difficulty you&#8217;re playing on as well. Revives have also been revised and are now permanently set to 4 for all Infernal Hordes runs. Meanwhile, the number of waves of a horde will be randomly determined on each Compass drop. 



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Less Chest Headaches and Better Loot</h2>



The end-of-run chests have undergone significant changes, with some of them even being removed! The Equipment and Item chests are no more, as they were no longer necessary. The tedium of some of the chests has also been removed, as Materials chests now also consume all Aether, just like the Gold ones, granting greater rewards the more Aether is put in. 



Greater Chest of Equipment is now much more expensive, costing 200 Aether (from 60). However, it will also be much more rewarding! It has a guaranteed Ancestral Legendary! And don&#8217;t forget, the new Ancestrals always have one guaranteed Greater Affix and are always maximum item level (800). 



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Other Important Loot</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Infernal-Hordes-Council.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image 35167"/></figure>



One of the key items added to the loot list for Infernal Hordes is the new Scroll of Restoration. It replenishes an item&#8217;s Tempering charges. Another change to the loot system is that the Council now drops guaranteed Legendary items with Infernal Hordes affixes.



That&#8217;s about it for the changes coming on Tuesday! So get ready to gear up for Torment and get some Compass drops, as the Hordes are looking to be more rewarding than ever!

Better and Rarer Infernal Hordes in Season 6 and Vessel of Hatred!

All classes are getting a major shakeup in 2.0.2, as both the expansion and Season 6 come in with a bang. Druids are no exception, with a very large amount of adjustments to everything from Paragon nodes to passive skills, Uniques and legendaries, and everything in-between! 



Let&#8217;s dive in to everything that&#8217;s coming with the major patch drop only a few days from now!

<li>Eminence: +6.5% Damage Reduction from Elites, 4% Maximum Life</li>
</ul>
<h4>Active Skill</h4>
Stone Burst – Earth Core Skill – 30 Spirit Cost
<ul>
<li>Base Skill: Gather stones beneath your enemies then detonate them dealing 120 <s>80</s>% Weapon damage. Channeling deals 20% Weapon damage and increases the size of the affected area, up to a 400% increase after 1.0 seconds.</li>
<li>Enhanced Stone Burst: Stone Burst’s final explosion damage is increased by 25%[x] within the initial radius.</li>
<li>Primal Stone Burst: While Channeling Stone Burst and for 2 seconds afterwards, you gain 30%[+] Attack Speed.</li>
<li>Raging Stone Burst: Stone Burst costs 66%[x] more Spirit, and its final explosion deals 50%[x] more damage.</li>
</ul>
Innate Debilitating Roar reworked
<ul>
<li>Previous – Debilitating Roar also slows enemies for 65% for its duration.</li>
<li>Now – Debilitating Roar increases your damage by 15%[x] for its duration.</li>
</ul>
Preserving Debilitating Roar
<ul>
<li>Healing increased from 4% to 6% of your Maximum Life per second while active.</li>
</ul>
Earthen Bulwark
<ul>
<li>Innate Earthen Bulwark’s damage increased from 30% to 60% Weapon Damage.</li>
</ul>
Trample
<ul>
<li>Updated to more consistently Trample to your target destination, rather than stopping immediately upon hitting terrain.</li>
</ul>
Cataclysm
<ul>
<li>Lightning Strike damage increased from 95% to 115% Weapon Damage.</li>
<li>Lightning Strikes now cannot hit the same target more than once every 0.5 seconds.</li>
</ul>
<blockquote>Developer’s Note: Cataclysm was previously updated to be guaranteed to hit an enemy with its lightning strikes, if one is in range. While this felt better to use, it turned out to be a bit overpowered. Now we’re limiting how frequently Cataclysm’s lightning strikes can repeatedly hit the same target to ensure that other Ultimate Skills can still be a competitive option in single target situations. The damage of the lightning strikes is being increased to compensate.</blockquote>
Ursine Strength
<ul>
<li>Damage bonus while Healthy reduced from 30%[x] to 15%[x].</li>
<li>Maximum Health bonus increased from 20%[x] to 30%[x].</li>
<li>Overpower damage bonus increased from 30%[x] to 45%[x].</li>
</ul>
<blockquote>Developer’s Note: Ursine Strength is one of the most popular Key Passives for Druids, and was designed with Werebear and or Overpower focused builds in mind. However, it is often being used in builds that have little interest in Werebear Skills or Overpower effects, because the 30%[x] Damage bonus while Healthy was generically powerful. We are reducing the power of this effect, while increasing the Maximum Health and Overpower damage bonuses to better support its Werebear and Overpower niche, versus other builds that it was not intended for.</blockquote>
Grizzly Rage
<ul>
<li>Overpowering Bosses now extends duration by 5 seconds.</li>
</ul>
Wolves
<ul>
<li>Wolf Companion’s Attack Speed increased by 15%.</li>
</ul>
Petrify
<ul>
<li>Previous: Encase all Nearby enemies in stone, Stunning them for 3 seconds. You deal 30%[x] increased Critical Strike Damage to enemies affected by Petrify. Against Bosses the Critical Strike Damage bonus is increased to 50%[x] and its duration is increased to 6 seconds.</li>
<li>Now: Generates 100 Spirit. Encase all Nearby enemies in stone, Stunning them for 4 seconds.</li>
</ul>
<blockquote>Developer’s Note: Triggering Petrify through the Yom rune will grant 100 of the Primary Resource for your class.</blockquote>
Prime Petrify
<ul>
<li>Previous: Petrify grants 50 Spirit when cast and its effect durations are increased by 1 second.</li>
<li>Now: You deal 30%[x] increased Critical Strike Damage to enemies affected by Petrify. Against Bosses the Critical Strike Damage bonus is increased to 50%[x] and its duration is increased to 7 seconds.</li>
<li>Bonus Critical Strike Damage now applies to damage done by your Companions.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Passive Skills</h4>

<ul>
<li>Key Passive: Your Companion Skills each gain 1 additional companion and deal 60 <s>50</s>%[x] increased damage. Gain the Passive Effect of Ravens, Wolves and Poison Creeper.</li>
</ul>
Humanity
<ul>
<li>You deal 5/10/15%[x] more damage while in Human form.</li>
</ul>

</ul>
Heightened Senses
<ul>
<li>Previous: When Shapeshifting into an animal form, Werebear grants 3/6/9% Damage Reduction and Werewolf grants 2/4/6%[+] Movement Speed for 6 seconds. Bonuses are doubled while both are active.</li>

</ul>
Nature’s Fury
<ul>
<li>Fixed an issue where the Passive incorrectly triggered from skills other than Casts.</li>
</ul>
<blockquote>Developer’s Note: Nature’s Fury triggered more than intended when using Landslide along with the Earthbreaker Unique Ring. It should only trigger from Casts, which happen once when you press a Skill button that is on your Action Bar. Not from the extra effects from various Legendary or Unique items. This is a substantial decrease in power for builds that were using this interaction, and to compensate, Earthbreaker has been made more potent (see below).</blockquote>

Big Druid Changes in Diablo 4 Patch 2.0.2 / Vessel of Hatred Launch

In Patch 2.0.2, you will only need 2 <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Quest_MiscTrinkets_11.webp" alt="Resplendent Spark">Resplendent Spark</a>s to craft 1 random <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/guides/how-to-farm-uber-uniques/">Mythic Unique</a>. However, crafting specific Mythic Uniques is gated behind purchasing the Vessel of Hatred expansion!



In the latest Vessel of Hatred <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/news/vessel-of-hatred-pre-launch-developer-update-everything-you-need-to-know/">Developer Update</a>, Blizzard revealed some important changes coming to the Mythic Unique Crafting System! 



You will only need 2 <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Quest_MiscTrinkets_11.webp" alt="Resplendent Spark">Resplendent Spark</a>s to craft a random Ancestral Mythic Unique at the Blacksmith. However, 2 <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Quest_MiscTrinkets_11.webp" alt="Resplendent Spark">Resplendent Spark</a>s + a set of runes will create a specific Ancestral Mythic Unique, letting you craft the one you need. Given how the Rune system is tied to the Vessel of Hatred expansion, target-crafting of Mythic Uniques requires you to buy the Vessel of Hatred expansion. The crafting of specific Mythic Uniques is done at the Jeweler now.

Master Spiritborn Item Farming: Pro Tips for Unique Drops in Vessel of Hatred!

We found out what the new season&#8217;s Aspects will be from the Season Journey! 



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Are These?</h2>



In case you weren&#8217;t aware, ever since Season 4 players have been receiving legendary Aspects throughout the Season Journey in forms of caches. The caches would give players specific Aspects for each class. These are meant as sort of starter build suggestions, similar to Diablo 3&#8217;s Haedrig&#8217;s Gift sets. Blizzard don&#8217;t usually announce them ahead of time, but this time we at least got the types of Aspect that are coming, if not the specific individual ones. 



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Season 6 Aspect Themes</h2>



Global Director of Community Adam Fletcher shared each class&#8217;s themes for Season 6. So at least we can narrow down which Aspects we will be getting! Here&#8217;s the list:



<ul>
<li>Barbarian: Weapon Mastery, Weapon Swapping (Walking Arsenal Key Passive) </li>



<li>Druid: Earth + Companions</li>



<li>Necromancer: Shadow + Curses</li>



<li>Rogue: Agility + Stealth </li>



<li>Sorcerer: Elementalism, Conjurations </li>



<li>Spiritborne: Undefined (&#8220;All&#8221;)</li>
</ul>
